I made the stove from a Chrysnbon plastic kit. Although the kit came in plastic molded in the proper color, I still sprayed all of the pieces with Testors flat black. I also sprayed the chrome pieces since I wanted this to look like an old stove without any fancy accents. To achieve the aged look, I dabbed on Mushroom acrylic paint by Folk Art and a paint by Testors appropriately called Rust. 
I added a red bulb to simulate warm coals. During installation, I painted the wires black and glued them to the inside of one of the back legs before feeding them through the floor.
